Review: Organic Handmade Soap by Keomi Skincare #naturalskincare

Natural, handmade soap is a nice way to treat our skin to a little luxury. It is no secret that I enjoy natural, beauty products whether it is a purchased product or DIY. I was excited when Keomi Skincare sent a Handmade Soap Sample Set to try and to share my opinions with you.

The set included four soaps: Green Tea Goddess, Luscious Lavender, Golden Crown and Sea Breeze. The sample set combined is similar to one generous block of soap with each soap being similar sized to a “guest soap”. They also sell full-sized bars, so a sample set like this is an affordable, low-commitment way to see which soap you prefer.

Each soap is beautiful to look at and smells amazing. The soap has a marbled appearance which adds an elegant touch. I was surprised that Keomi includes no added colorants so the color comes from the natural ingredients.

Keomi soaps also seem fairly mild. I find many commercial soaps to be drying, but not these soaps. They seem very mild on my skin (but be sure to read the ingredients to ensure you are not using one that contains ingredients you react to).

This is a promotional image showing Keomi’s 3 Full-size Soap Gift Sets. This is a different set than I received, but I am including it as an example of their presentation style.

I loved these soaps especially the Green Tea Goddess and the Golden Crown. Each soap’s scent is unique and elegantly blended. I frequently make my own bath and body products such as melts, scrubs, and lotions. I have not yet made soap at home (though I did take a class in soap making) and plan to one day. The ingredients used are those I would feel comfortable using to make my own products including rich oils and butters (shea butter, coconut oil, olive oil, cocoa butter etc.), dead sea clay, and essential oils.

This set would be lovely in a gift basket as it comes beautifully wrapped in an organza bag (exactly as shown). It is also a nice treat for oneself if you are interested in trying four handmade soaps before choosing your favorite. Each sample has lasted several showers and hand washes.

Sam isn't really that "sly", but a college roommate thought so since she had Sly and The Family Stone on nearly constant rotation. When not editing Feeling Fit, Sam can be found pretending to be "sly" and "feeling fit"!
